Some of you surely own or at least played ps3,
give us your take on Resistance, the multiplayer, whatever. I just want to hear about the games!

my step dads nephew got one(spoiled git) and I played Resistance and wait for it.....


I was unimpressed. It isnt a bad game, its pretty well polished, but it doesn' t " feel" right. My biggest complaint is how slow bullets seem to travel. Play it or watch the vids and you' ll hopefully see what I mean. I hope I can play it a little more next time I visit my mom and my stepdad' s family just so I can give it more time, but, excuse the fanboy in me here, it wasnt Halo.

played motorstorm wal-mart, it does blow. the graphics look next-gen but they aren' t impressive at all. Also played NBA Live 07 graphics were pretty shitty, 2k on 360 has much better, I never played live on 360. EA sux too.

After their GoW comments and buying Criterion, I hope EA burns in hell. Ubi Soft has contributed much more to gaming than EA, as have many other developers. (Im not saying UbiSoft is the best dev, just that they are another large publisher that hasnt done awful things a la EA)

The graphics are decent enough anyway I am more interested in how it plays. I have not played it but from what I have seen from vids of game running it looks fun to play and could be a great multiplayer game.

I' ve played Motorstorm at a local Target. And i' ve played Resistance and fuddled around with the XMB at a buddies place. My first impressions.

The console: You' ve got no idea how big this thing is. I mean, it looks almost petitte when you see it in their box, it makes it look quite slimming, but for the love of Mike, it' s freakin huge. We pulled it out, & examined it, & as I was pulling with one hand, I realised I wanted my firend to support it with the other.
Fingerprints are really visible on the case, which I had expected but nothing as bad as what it was.
Powering on/off/resetting is responsive enough. It' s just about right in that regard.
As for noise, it was quieter than 360, but I couldn' t tell about heat because we only had it on sporradicaly.

The controller: Honestly, it' s not as bad as everybody makes it out to be, it' s no more comfortable than dualshock, but I didn' t notice any finger slippage on R2 L2. The lack of rumble was dissapointing, but not shockingly bad, it was just the weight that bugged me.

Resistance: Fall of Man: One phrase. Big fish... small pond. Everything else sucks. No really, I haven' t seen a single good exclusive other than this. It plays nicely enough. You should definately get it once you pick one up, it just isn' t really a system seller IMO. It kinda reminds me of Halo actually. It' s absolutely amazing compared to everything else, but by the time you give it even treatment, it' s simply fallen down to the status of " a good game" .

That' s all for now, I might post more tomorrow once i' ve had a little more hands-on time.

Reminds me of CoD2. While a good game, would it have sold the numbers it did if there were other good 360 games on launch?

How did I get a PS3? Silly Billy, I' ve already got one.



No seriously though, I sucked up to my college-aged buddies brother. (A.K.A. Picked my way into my friends, brothers, room to mess around with it.) It' s actually kinda scary. I' m one of the first folks to play all 3 consoles on the forums here. Up until last year, I was pretty out-of-the-loop when it comes to hands on stuff. It' s a little bit surreal actually.
